N690 Bowie Knife Blank - N44
The bowie is the classic big American pattern. A long clip point gives reach and a fine tip, while the belly handles the heavy work.
This is Böhler's cobalt-alloyed stainless. In outdoor use it holds an edge through hard work and does not pit when the knife lives in a damp sheath.
Certified Voestalpine steel, hand ground in our workshop, professionally heat treated by Voestalpine before it ships. That is the whole process.
